Today we headed down to the capital, Wellington! Aboard our new bus with a different driver Joe we passed the journey time with an epic game of bus-bowling down the aisle of the bus which with $62 at stake was very competitive! Unfortunatle Elin scored 0, Camilla 2, and Becky 4 which was not enough to beat the full strike and so the 462 was taken from our sights!! Arriving in Wellington we decided not to be disheartened and instead visited the fanous Te Papa Museum before heading to the supermarket where we treated ourselves to some pick and mix! We may have sampled one sweet each as walked through the store, unfortunately however this little naughty was observed by a local busy-body shopper who followed us through the store and accused us of stealing! At the till she came up behind us and demanded that we added extra money to the bill much to the amusement of the the girl behind the counter! The cruel woman got the supervisor and ordered her to add a whole $6 to the bill which was more than the entire pick and mix was worth! Fortunately the supervisor thought it was funny but appalled and ever so slightly terrified that we would be imprisoned we made a swift exit to the hostel where we enjoyed a delightful free meal of watered down curry before heading to bed!! Punishment for the convicted!!!

Museum
Hey, the museum is amazing, isn't it? I've been there myself in June (unfortunately I didn't have a blog back then :-/) and it was absolutely beautiful. I loved Wellington. Wellington Zoo is pretty cool too, they got some adorable bears ;-) Have a great time over there x
